Satellite

  • HSI mission
  • SDR mission
    • Spitsbergen is a special case
  • Overall pipeline of satellites
  • CubeSat platform
  • Ground station
  • Frequencies
    • UHF
    • S-band
    • X-band
  • ITU
    • Some frequencies must be coordinated
    • Some are exempt (not subject to coordination)
      • 2025-2110
      • 2200-2250
      • And also amateur bands - but difficult to get for purely university use (2400-2500)
    • UHF
      • 401-402 (downlink), 402-403 (uplink) MHz for Earth Exploration
      • TT&C
    • X-band
      • Possible for downlink
  • We should chat with KSAT to get some recommendations on which bands to use
  • Article 11 gives a good introduction on how things should go
  • Can file several bands
  1. Choose frequencies
  2. They prepare a notice to ITU
    1. Advanced Publication of a non-Geostationary satellite not subject to coordination Information
    2. Orbit
    3. Coverage area
    4. Laid out in a format in an annex to the radio regulations
  3. There might be a software to make the notice on the ITU webpage

 

Ground Station

  • Apply for a license for the ground station
    • Location, power level, frequency bands, application
  • Frekvens.nkom.no
  • Only uplink is regulated
